Did you see this at Hare in Noblesville? I get on this site once in a while. Still debating on the H2 or Denali. Thought I'd respond, I saw a black "Big Pickup" at Hare while going to Autozone today for parts.
If your going off road anytime soon, please let me know, I have been wanting to see these things in action off road for a while. Thanks

Yep thats the one.. Just can't decide to pull the trigger.. I love my H2.. but also do not like having a vec. like everyone else. ANd some yahoo has the same color H2 as mine and bought the same wheels.

Yep that's the monster.. I may be sick , ( well I am) but it is cool..
I just got off the phone with the dealer.. It is not $61,000 worth of cool! . The H2 stays in the barn....Besides I am just now adding stuff to the H2 Hopefully the other guy in the area doesn't keep copying it.. If so I will fix him .. I'll take it down to Billy J's and have himflame it with a one of a kind paint job.. That will ifx the bastard

Oh I forgot.. the one they have is the crew cab version.. The salesman said it is the ultimate machine.. I said I don't haul, tow or pull anything.. He asked why I had a big 4 wheel drive dually .. I said because at the time it was cool.. and I didn't have one.

That just looks like a miniature semi to me. If you want a different truck to consider, look up the upcoming Ford Tonka. Has some resemblance to the H2 but appears to be bigger and badder!

OMG! I am laughing my arse off at that thing!
It looks like a cab of a semi, astro, and silverado all smashed together.
ICKO factor is high on this one.

Yep.. but the crew cab still looks neat to me. So be nice. I still have one feeling left.

EASY, bro. You don't have to rack your brain too much here. If you want off-road balls, this truck doen't even get in the same arena as an H2. Just looking at the front and rear approach/departure angles seels the deal. No doubt a truck like that will tow better, which is potentially dominant over an H2. But that there is no ultimate SUV-- not EVEN close. You've got to decide what your needs are. Then the decision is easy.

Thanks wasn't concerned with off road ablity.. Just think it is neat.. Bit as I stated before it ain't $61K worth of cool.. Hell needs rarely have anything to do with my decisions when I buy a new toy.. I didn't need the H2 when I got it.. just wanted it. and it was $50K worth of cool.. JUst like my S2000 was worth its $$.. My real daily work horse is my 99 Suburban ( lifted and customized ov course or a Crown Vic. I just love new toys.. THe big dually simply has large cool factor for me the Pix on the site does not due it justice.. Besides some people even have the gaul to say that the H2 is big and ugly... You just have to follow your own inner mind.

This truck has been around for years. It is simply a medium duty commercial truck, a C-class for chevy and gmc. There are companies like Cowboy Cadillac that convert medium duties to plush trailer pullers for the horse, racing, or camping crowds.
I saw one that pulled a '42 Fountain power boat that was like a caddy on the inside, had airbag suspension and full multi-media entertainment on the inside. The trucks have their place, but I don't think they come in 6 wheel drive.

Paragon,
That makes tremendous sense to me. Every truck has it's place, apparently this one is for heavy consistent towing (not bad). If I was moving multiple horses around daily that would be on the must-have list.

Ok now those are neat too. However I'm sure they arfe moe than my toy meter will allow. I will stick with my present group of toys.. I do need to replACE the street rail that melted in my barn fire this summer.. Only toy I have not fixed or replaced.. It is mostly smoke damaged.. I guess it will be a nice winter project, Thanks again for the pixs. I do love a bigger then lfe SUV.
